As a Program Analyst and Master’s candidate at Arizona State University, I excel in data analysis and program evaluation with a 4.0 GPA. My journey spans from orchestrating strategic operations in the US Navy to shaping global data landscapes at the US Department of State. A versatile professional, I blend analytical prowess with UX design skills and a passion for digital archiving. Outside the data realm, I find joy in photography, gaming, and exploring languages, reflecting a well-rounded approach to life.
